They must be, I had 5 aunts, all were Southern raised, Southern cooks, all lived into their late 80’s or 90’s.
I’ve modified my diet a little, with the fat and other high cal foods, but still eat as they ate in MODERATION and smaller portions. I’m pushing 70. Worse health condition is a bad back, the doctors deem UNFIX ABLE. Now be a good old lady and take this nasty pill for Osteoarthritis so I can then give you a pill to fix your ruined stomach the OA pills destroyed, Oh, that pill to fix your stomach will destroy your bones. Then I have a OP pill to fix that, BTW all of them are FLAGGED by the FDA. Foreto with the highest flag the Black Box for Bone Cancer.
I am more likely to die from the SIDE EFFECT RIDDLE PILLS the doctor keeps plugging and pushing on me. After all the medical profession is the third leading cause of death in the USA. Good thing, they have to write scripts as we are Medicare/Tricare Life and DOD MANDATED to get our daily meds from a Military base or Express Scripts so no call ins, that I then can shred your paper scripts.
